<p>I sucked hard at the 300-gamers. And then i saw the answers and kicked myself. I allowed the dates to throw me, rather than hammering in names of veterans</p>

<p>Probably the 1905 one doesn't stick in living memory so will be surprised if anyone got 100% first off.</p>

<p>Are overseas first class matches counted in the 300? If so Spencer would easily be over.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And is Caleb Ralph really over 300? Wiki seems to think he's more in the 270 range.</p>
</div>

<p> </p>
<p>Matches played for overseas teams do not count.</p>
<p>Source for this info is NZ Rugby Almanack which lists him as being over 300. Doesn't surprise as never injured, played for Maoris, All Blacks, NZ Colts, started with BOP at 18 or thereabouts.</p> -

<p>got all of them bar the 1905 one. I couldn't name a single player from then off the top of my head. </p>

<p>All good mate. Wiki didn't include colts.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And I'd definitely trust the NZRA over Wiki anyway.</p>

<p>DM if that's at me then... Gallagher? Deans? yea, the names just wouldn't come to mind. And the right answer wouldn't have come to me if you had given me an hour. or a day. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Most of the rest were pretty easy i thought. Most of the times they are wingers/fullbacks, so if you don't remember the game you just enter names from the right era until you get it. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Neps Mils played wing that game and just ran them in. </p> -
<p>Couldn't for the life of me remember Green or Ellis. Was thrilled that typing goldie netted a result. :good1:</p>

<p>Tough one this one. It would be quite the rugby historian who would get this on the first go.</p>
